BCCI on Saturday (January 22) announced the revised schedule for the upcoming white-ball series against West Indies at home.

India were due to host West Indies for six limited-overs games — three ODIs and T20Is each — at six different venues from February 6 to February 20. But now the games will be held only in Ahmedabad and Kolkata.

While the three ODIs will be played in Ahmedabad on February 6, February 9 and February 11, the three T20Is will be staged in Kolkata on February 16. February 18 and February 20.

“The three ODIs will now be played at the Narendra Modi Stadium, Ahmedabad and three T20Is will be held at the Eden Gardens, Kolkata. The decision to limit the series to two venues instead of six as originally announced has been done to mitigate biosecurity risks by cutting down on travel and movement of the teams, match officials, broadcasters, and other stakeholders,” BCCI said in a statement.

As per the initial schedule, the third ODI was slated for February 12, which was clashing with the IPL 2022 mega auction.

The mega auction is due to be held in Bengaluru on February 12 and 13.
